People with opinions and a seat

people on trainPeople are still annoying me with their obvious and unoriginal comments and unhelpful nuggets of advice about pregnancy.  I have now just resorted to ignoring most people or giving them unexpected responses.  It can go something like this:

Them: Sooooooooo, how’s it going?

Me (with no expression on my face): Weird.

Them (surprised): Weird?

Me: Yeah, weird.

Them: Oh.

Me:  The whole growing a human inside you and your tummy getting bigger by the day, it’s well, really weird.

The lift door opens and they scurry off.

So far I have found people quick to offer you unwanted opinions and slow to offer you a seat on public transport.

People happily ignore you standing by the train doors though, don’t want to share their opinion then, do they? I see you. I used to be you, pretending not to have seen me. It’s okay, if I get that desperate I’ll come and politely ask you for your seat but otherwise I’m good to stand for a bit.  I’m pregnant, not a super-bitch, well at least not yet.
